Why Beneil Dariush sees prosperous UFC title reign for Sean Strickland
Beneil Dariush broke down UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland's style.
UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland (31-7 MMA, 18-7 UFC) is set to face Nassourdine Imavov in a title defense, but if the pay dispute with the UFC is resolved, it could present an opportunity for Beneil Dariush. The two have a long-standing relationship, with Dariush even training alongside Strickland. Dariush accurately predicted Strickland's victory over Imavov in a light heavyweight fight in January 2023.
He now believes that should Strickland maintain his hard work mentality, no one will be able to defeat him at 185 pounds.
